Those in the know are reporting that the same modders who are completing the B-25 will be giving us the long needed early war Soviet light/medium bomber the SB-2

Sorry, the Katyusha is completly on-topic and therefore should be discarded

Hip Hip Hooray!

And if you believe that I have a bridge in Brooklyn that I can let you have cheap.

A reminder - fun is good, but it is good to avoid jokes that could mislead people with regard to what the developer's plans actually are.

DD today then? Going forward, i'm presuming we are going to see less and less BoX related DD's @LukeFF ? 

 

My expectation would be that we'll see as much BoX dev diaries as we have been seeing (in absolute number), but it we will see a higher ratio of Il2K to BoX dev updates (in relative terms)... because we weren't getting regular Il2K dev updates before.

[tattywelshie]

Let me be the first one to say... BoX DD today then?

[JG4_Moltke1871]

My wish list for DD informations for current developments:

 

1. FC4

2. Ju87 D5

3. I-153

4. Odessa/Karelia Map

 

🎁💝

Yeah, I'm with you there!

[Trooper117]

I-153... this should be the priority. (it may not be WWI, but it has more than one set of wings!)  

[BMA_FlyingShark]

FW 190 A9

Bf 109 G10

Early Spitfire MIXc

Early P40

P 47 M

 

Have a nice day.

 

[tattywelshie]

Surely we are due a BoX DD today?

We won't have any dev diary. Great Battles is dead 😞

[JG4_Moltke1871]

I hear we can expect FC4 in September/October…

 

Let us see how they look so far you hardworking industrious developers 💪🏻

 

 

[Trooper117]

They won't show you anything until just before it's release.... be sure (RP invoked)

Yes, a sneak peak would be insane.   Certainly they have more sense than that..🫣

Yeah just a little snippet of how she's coming along would be nice. Or a big snippet, I don't care. C'mon Devs, bring it on.

Crazy talk mate.   People might get excited about it, then what?

[KodiakJac]

Is there a list of the aircraft to be included in FC4?

 

I sure hope they concentrate on fleshing out 1916 more!

After the completion of FC-III, there are plans for 2024 to develop an additional set together with Yugra Media that will reproduce the remaining land-based aircraft in Rise of Flight.

It is currently planned to include:

• British Sopwith Pup fighter.
• British rear-engine fighter Airco DH.2.
• British two-seat reconnaissance Sopwith 1 1/2 Strutter.
• German fighter Albatros D.III.
• German Fokker E.III monoplane fighter.
• German two-seat reconnaissance Roland C.IIa.

[ST_Catchov]

I dunno, perhaps the Devs could give us some info in the next DD about why the FC4 release date has been pushed back a month or two, and heck it, why not throw in a few crumbs our way in the interim? Yeah, I know they're all excited about Korea and the new engine and stuff. But that's years away. I mean, it's pretty dead here. I wanna be excited not sedated. Something. C'mon.

I hope  more than just Airco Dh.2 FMs fixing, usually when one patient is on the table, doing another one is the best time. Another one -  perhaps beta tester found more bugs/ issues with FC4 or developing and testing is taking more time because devs are busy with Korea.

DÉCLARATION OFFICIELLE : Vous avez probablement toujours su que nous ne faisions que plaisanter avec l'idée de la Corée !  Poisson d'avril! Ce sur quoi nous avons vraiment travaillé, c'est le B-25, attendu depuis longtemps et qui est en état de vol. La bonne nouvelle, c'est qu'il vient de passer les tests bêta et qu'ilsortira dans environ deux semaines! 

Encore meilleure nouvelle, il y aura 3 modèles : le premier B-25 C , le B-25D et ce que vous avez tous demandé à propos du B-25G équipé d'un canon ! 

Bientôt suivi par le B-26 Marauder pilotable (la plupart des problèmes ont été résolus sur le B-25, donc le développement du Marauder se déroule sans problème).

Enfin, et pour longtemps, nous travaillons en collaboration avec les moddeurs de CloD, la référence absolue de tout simulateur de vol de la Seconde Guerre mondiale :  Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress   , d'ici la fin de l'année ! Le nôtre sera le modèle "F". Sans doute le plus joli de tous les modèles Flying Fortress.

Nous espérons sincèrement que cette nouvelle égayera votre week-end ainsi que les jours et semaines suivants !

 

Very good news if they are correct.
The B-17, B-24 and Avro Lancaster in GB would be very appreciable.
as well as other versions of aircraft already existing notably the FW190A-9 and BF109G-10, I would be a direct buyer.

Some things are being worked on that I think will make players very happy.

Can you be more specific on what these "some things" are of which you speak of Sir? And please not videos of AM radio broadcasts.

Sorry, not quite yet. 🙂 I can only say at this point that they are things people have been asking about for a while.

I'd love some info on what the holdup for the new skin templates is, and if this is likely to continue for next releases.

No more gliders! With all due respect to the devs the WACO would have been better off as AI or a $10 plane because once you land there’s nothing you can do after and currently has very limited SP content.

Need a German glider to have same possibility’s on both sides 😉

That can mean a lot.…

Can be the visual bomb safety switch in German and Soviet planes, the functioning Kurssteuerung in some German aircrafts,  but maybe they put their hands of some flight models of WW1 aircraft while they are busy doing it anyway. In other posts I read The Pfalz D.IIIa, Albatros D.Va and the N28 don’t have the performance they should have?

 

Let’s be patient and see what it’s finally is 😉

That's unpossible. Some will get all hopped up on hopium and dream up something really fanciful that inevitably turns out to not be it then they'll get all poopypants big mad and spew upsetty spaghetti on the forum.

[tattywelshie]

Come on…how’s about a little DD for Great Battles for a change? @LukeFF 😂😂😂
